Answer:

An adult heart has a mass of 250–350 grams (9–12 oz). The heart is often described as the size of a fist: 12 cm (5 in) in length, 8 cm (3.5 in) wide, and 6 cm (2.5 in) in thickness, although this description is disputed, as the heart is likely to be slightly larger.

  • The human heart is an organ that pumps blood through the circulatory system's veins, giving oxygen and nutrition to the tissues while eliminating carbon dioxide and other wastes.
  • Dr. Lawrence Phillips, a cardiologist at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York, explained, "The tissues of the body need a steady supply of nutrients to stay active."
  • "The organs and tissues will perish if [the heart] is unable to provide blood to them."
  • A healthy adult heart weighs between 250 and 350 grams (9 and 12 ounces).
  • The heart is commonly stated as being the size of a fist: 12 cm (5 in) long, 8 cm (3.5 in) broad, and 6 cm (2.5 in) thick, however this is contested because the heart is likely to be significantly bigger.
